The Defense Acquisition Regulations System of the Department of Defense has proposed a revision and extension of a collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act, and they have submitted it to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance. The information is collected to ensure the security of information technology and to assist with telecommunications services contracts. Comments on this proposal can be submitted until February 12, 2021. The collection involves approximately 820 respondents who are estimated to provide around 5,932 responses annually, with an average response time of 0.5 hours per response.
Simple Explanation
The government wants to make sure it collects enough information to keep our technology safe and to help with phone and internet contracts. Some people think it should be clearer about why they need this information and how it affects small companies.
